<p>Filament is a real-time physically based rendering engine for Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, Windows,
and WebGL. It is designed to be as small as possible and as efficient as possible on Android.</p>
<h2 id="download"><a class="header" href="#download">Download</a></h2>
<p><a href="https://github.com/google/filament/releases">Download Filament releases</a> to access stable builds.
Filament release archives contains host-side tools that are required to generate assets.</p>
<p>Make sure you always use tools from the same release as the runtime library. This is particularly
important for <code>matc</code> (material compiler).</p>
<p>If you'd rather build Filament yourself, please refer to our <a href="building.html">build manual</a>.</p>

<h2 id="rendering-with-filament"><a class="header" href="#rendering-with-filament">Rendering with Filament</a></h2>
<h3 id="native-linux-macos-and-windows"><a class="header" href="#native-linux-macos-and-windows">Native Linux, macOS and Windows</a></h3>
<p>You must create an <code>Engine</code>, a <code>Renderer</code> and a <code>SwapChain</code>. The <code>SwapChain</code> is created from a
native window pointer (an <code>NSView</code> on macOS or a <code>HWND</code> on Windows for instance):</p>
<pre><code class="language-c++">Engine* engine = Engine::create();
SwapChain* swapChain = engine-&gt;createSwapChain(nativeWindow);
Renderer* renderer = engine-&gt;createRenderer();
</code></pre>
<p>To render a frame you must then create a <code>View</code>, a <code>Scene</code> and a <code>Camera</code>:</p>
<pre><code class="language-c++">Camera* camera = engine-&gt;createCamera(EntityManager::get().create());
View* view = engine-&gt;createView();
Scene* scene = engine-&gt;createScene();
view-&gt;setCamera(camera);
view-&gt;setScene(scene);
</code></pre>
<p>Renderables are added to the scene:</p>
<pre><code class="language-c++">Entity renderable = EntityManager::get().create();
// build a quad
RenderableManager::Builder(1)
.boundingBox({{ -1, -1, -1 }, { 1, 1, 1 }})
.material(0, materialInstance)
.geometry(0, RenderableManager::PrimitiveType::TRIANGLES, vertexBuffer, indexBuffer, 0, 6)
.culling(false)
.build(*engine, renderable);
scene-&gt;addEntity(renderable);
</code></pre>
<p>The material instance is obtained from a material, itself loaded from a binary blob generated
by <code>matc</code>:</p>
<pre><code class="language-c++">Material* material = Material::Builder()
.package((void*) BAKED_MATERIAL_PACKAGE, sizeof(BAKED_MATERIAL_PACKAGE))
.build(*engine);
MaterialInstance* materialInstance = material-&gt;createInstance();
</code></pre>
<p>To learn more about materials and <code>matc</code>, please refer to the
<a href="../main/materials.html">materials documentation</a>.</p>
<p>To render, simply pass the <code>View</code> to the <code>Renderer</code>:</p>
<pre><code class="language-c++">// beginFrame() returns false if we need to skip a frame
if (renderer-&gt;beginFrame(swapChain)) {
// for each View
renderer-&gt;render(view);
renderer-&gt;endFrame();
}
</code></pre>
<p>For complete examples of Linux, macOS and Windows Filament applications, look at the source files
in the <code>samples/</code> directory. These samples are all based on <code>libs/filamentapp/</code> which contains the
code that creates a native window with SDL2 and initializes the Filament engine, renderer and views.</p>
<p>For more information on how to prepare environment maps for image-based lighting please refer to
<a href="building.html#running-the-native-samples">BUILDING.md</a>.</p>
<h3 id="android-1"><a class="header" href="#android-1">Android</a></h3>
<p>See <code>android/samples</code> for examples of how to use Filament on Android.</p>
<p>You must always first initialize Filament by calling <code>Filament.init()</code>.</p>
<p>Rendering with Filament on Android is similar to rendering from native code (the APIs are largely
the same across languages). You can render into a <code>Surface</code> by passing a <code>Surface</code> to the
<code>createSwapChain</code> method. This allows you to render to a <code>SurfaceTexture</code>, a <code>TextureView</code> or
a <code>SurfaceView</code>. To make things easier we provide an Android specific API called <code>UiHelper</code> in the
package <code>com.google.android.filament.android</code>. All you need to do is set a render callback on the
helper and attach your <code>SurfaceView</code> or <code>TextureView</code> to it. You are still responsible for
creating the swap chain in the <code>onNativeWindowChanged()</code> callback.</p>
<h3 id="ios-1"><a class="header" href="#ios-1">iOS</a></h3>
<p>Filament is supported on iOS 11.0 and above. See <code>ios/samples</code> for examples of using Filament on
iOS.</p>
<p>Filament on iOS is largely the same as native rendering with C++. A <code>CAEAGLLayer</code> or <code>CAMetalLayer</code>
is passed to the <code>createSwapChain</code> method. Filament for iOS supports both Metal (preferred) and
OpenGL ES.</p>
<h2 id="assets"><a class="header" href="#assets">Assets</a></h2>
<p>To get started you can use the textures and environment maps found respectively in
<code>third_party/textures</code> and <code>third_party/environments</code>. These assets are under CC0 license. Please
refer to their respective <code>URL.txt</code> files to know more about the original authors.</p>
<p>Environments must be pre-processed using
<a href="building.html#running-the-native-samples"><code>cmgen</code></a> or
using the <code>libiblprefilter</code> library.</p>
